복셀 차감법에 의한 나노 복화(複畵)공정 정밀화

Abstract

In this study, a new algorithm, named as Contour Offset Algorithm(COA) is developed to fabricate precise features or patterns in the range of several micrometers by nano replication printing(nRP) process. In the nRP process, a femto-second laser is scanned on a photosensitive monomer resin in order to induce polymerization of the liquid monomer according to a voxel matrix which is transformed from the bitmap format file. After polymerization, a droplet of ethanol is dropped to remove the unnecessary remaining liquid resin and then only the polymerized figures with nano-scaled precision are remaining on the glass plate. To obtain more precise replicated features, the contour lines in voxel matrix should be modified considering a voxel size. In this study, the efficiency of the proposed method is shown through two examples in view of accuracy.
